Introduction
The D-Link MediaLoungeTM 10/100Base-TX Fast Ethernet Digital Media Storage is a 20 Gigabyte (DSM-602H) or a 40 Gigabyte (DSM-604H) portable HDD (Hard Disk Drive) device that connects to a hub, switch, or router on a local area network(LAN) that includes a DHCP server.
The DSM-600 series Digital Media Storage provides a fast and easy way to add high performance storage capacity to home, small business or school networks. These Digital Media Storage devices are ideal for sharing archived digital photos of family and friends, digital videos, music, games, important documents or other files among computers and other devices on your network.
These are true Universal Plug and Play products, providing high data transfer rates over a Fast Ethernet connection and are compatible with Windows, Mac OS X and Linuxbased computers. For supported Windows operating systems, the UPnPTM protocol allows for instantaneous discovery with no configuration required.
With Mac OS X, the DSM-602H/604H uses Apple’s Rendezvous for instant detection with no configuration.
For added convenience, these digital media storage devices are also hot-swappable and their Fast Ethernet ports are Auto MDI/MDI-X, meaning that you can use any type of standard Ethernet cable — either straight-through or crossover cable to connect the DSM-602H/604H to your network.
With the DSM-602H & 604H connected to your DHCP-capable router — all the computers in your LAN will have instant access to extra data storage and file sharing!
